This paper has briefly discussed the basic petroleum geological conditions, such as the source rock, reservoir and pool distribution, in the middle and lower combinations of onshore superimposed basins in China and highlights the area for future exploration. Several conclusions have been reached. Finally, hydrocarbon distribution is considered to have a close relationship with the development of palaeo-uplift, sedimentary facies, volcanic facies distribution, fault zone and unconformity development. Thus the middle and lower combinations are one of the most favorable regions for future exploration in onshore superimposed basins.
